Underage

Local experimental label Cabin Games takes over the City Hall lawn this Thursday for its part of the city-sanctioned "Out to Lunch" series, so brave the downtown button-down flurry just this once. Outer-space-based Cabin Games signees Hightek Lowlives will be unleashing interstellar grooves on downtown's staunchly stale core with their choice blend of sci-fi-infused, wonky blips and feel-good R&B/triphop soul. There will be even more trippy beats from Richie Dagger's Crime, but be sure to stick around for headliner Steve Fisk, whose awesome weirdness is immortalized in his cross-genre-ational work. Beginning in the '80s, the Northwest legend has released records as a member of Pell Mell and Pigeonhed, as well as solo records through independent labels such as K, Sub Pop, and SST. Fisk's music ranges from found-sound experiments to minimal weirdo-core, and he's collaborated with everyone from Girl Trouble to Ben Gibbard. On top of all this, Fisk has also worked as an engineer/producer for teeny-tiny bands like Nirvana, Low, and Beat Happening, as well as current local bands I've raved about in this column before—Special Explosion and SEACATS. City Hall Plaza, noon–1:30 pm, free.
